Had It Coming

3:10Let me explain to y'all what the title of this album mean. Ayo, ayo, I'm sittin' in my cell, waitin' for my mother to come / She had to travel eight hours 'cause of her son / Locked up with family members, my brother was one / Mom got two kids in jail because of a gun / Shoulda known trouble would come / But we'd rather throw rocks at the pens than struggle with crumbs/ Adapted to a habitat, in the jungle we hung / Made us monsters, we started off humble and young / I got my first sale charge around summer '01 / First court appearance, shit, I prayed someone would come / I looked behind me, who do I see? My mother in front / Got separated from her baby for a couple of months / I came home and went on a hustlin' run / I put an end to your sufferin' from doublin' funds / My mama be proud of me, no matter what I become / My most reliable sources was my mother and gun / You the reason my heart knew love / I know I did things you ain't approve of / But what you taught me was how to be kind-hearted like you was / That's why I got rich and showed the crew love / Picked homie up from prison in the Benz, it had blue rugs / Few months later he sold me out for a new plug / That's what you go through when you move drugs / Whole crew beefin' with each other, we really just need a group hug / 38 really came from the slums / I cashed checks, we was just thumbin' through ones / My mama be proud of me no matter what I become / But I don't trust no-one like my mother and gun All these bitches, yeah, they go and they come / But ain't no woman like my mama / No woman like my mama / I got it tatted on me that I'm Sharlene's son / You see me, you see my mama / I ain't have nothing, it was hard in these slums / But I always had my mama / Always had my mama / These bitches say they got me, but a nigga not dumb, you ain't got me like my mama / My mama
